A woman who was hired and later fired by DA Pamela Price says the Alameda County DA's Office violated the Public Records Act by deleting, changing and hiding public records, according to a leaked letter obtained by The Berkeley Scanner. 

The former staffer, Patti Lee, also said Price "constantly and openly" made derogatory comments against Asian Americans, at one point saying that "the media and the Asians" were her enemies, according to the letter.
